Got Mik?

Before I start a new entry, I really would like to thank all my dear friends who gave me kind complements for the Shoot Me series so far (*winks, Gracey!). Really appreciate every single encouragement. Yeah I think it will motivate us to do more shoots of higher quality. Hahaha I really do hope! Even a quick question of asking where I bought my stuff from, speaks a thousand words. =)

************************************************************************

Hennes & Mauritz AB. 

You must remember these names, cause you might be wearing their stuff.

H&M- that's what it is, the giant Swedish fashion retailer we all adore. Most of us are guilty of flying to The States, to Hong Kong, to Japan and any other countries that allow us to step into those shops with that striking red label. Aren't we? On top of really affordable and trendy pieces offered, another reason why I love H&M are the collaborations it has with all the top fashion designers. Yes, I really mean world re-known designers who send Hollywood stars strutting down the red carpet in their creations. H&M has previously collaborated with both pop icons and designers including Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Stella McCartney, Karl Lagerfeld, Roberto Cavalli and Viktor & Rolf. Ooh La La...

Just few months ago, H&M collaborated with Matthew Williamson for some really sexy, flowy, dresses that are to die-for in the Summer/ Spring collections. He's a British designer, known for his extraordinary use of colour. It's really through Matthew Williamson that I started liking dresses with bold colours and prints. I used to think they're too loud to be worn in Singapore. It's all about colours, colours and more colours.

I still enjoy looking at models in maxi-dresses even though I do not own one. I think I'm too mini for a maxi. Haha. Well, perhaps someday I will. 

Something different. Metallic pink power suit, anyone?

Now, the newest on the list is Jimmy Choo! Yeah one of the favorite pump labels of Carrie in "Sex & the City". It will be launching the collection in 200 H&M stores on Nov. 14, including covetable shoes and bags as well as a women's clothing line to match them. Hey boys, no worries, there are treats for you too. Jimmy Choo will also provide a men's collection of shoes, bags and accessories. Fantastic!

Is true. I can't wait.
